The Parish Council is delighted that the Boundary Commission listened to our feedback and have extended the electoral boundary to include Dunkirk Farm and Bluebell Green.
In their report, the Boundary Commission wrote:
'Holmes Chapel Parish Council provided more information in support of their initial request for the Dane Valley ward boundary to reflect the Holmes Chapel settlement boundary. This would involve the inclusion of Bluebell Green and Dunkirk Farm within Dane Valley ward. They argue that the electors in these areas consider themselves to be part of Holmes Chapel and they utilise the services and amenities in the village. We have decided to adopt their request as part of our final recommendations as we consider this area an extension of Holmes Chapel and its inclusion into Dane Valley ward will therefore better reflect community identities and interests. This amendment also improves the level of electoral equality in the neighbouring Brereton ward.'
